Police in Northern Ireland have appealed for more information from members of the public.

POLICE IN NORTHERN Ireland have said they will revisit the Ramore Head area of Antrim on Tuesday as the search for missing Portrush man Dean Patton continues.

The 24-year-old was last seen at about 1pm on Tuesday, 24 July in Portrush. He was wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans and is described as being about 6-foot tall with dark hair and a tanned complexion.

Leaflets and posters with information about Dean will also be handed out in the Eglington Lane area of Portrush by police on Tuesday.

In the days following his disappearance, his family had become increasingly worried for their son who they described as a “vulnerable adult”.

Detectives are still appealing for members of the public who may have seen Dean in the Eglington Lane area of Portrush or who may have any information that could assist with their inquiries, to contact them on 0845 600 8000.
